Evan Roth graduated with a MFA in design and technology from The New School at Parsons. He is one of their most notable recent graduates focusing on how to incorporate an interest in popular culture with coding and open source technology. Roth seems to enjoy exploiting the flamboyant nature of popular culture but also involves himself in deep studies of subcultures such as graffiti art. He co-founded the Graffiti Research Lab after working on the Graffiti Analysis project for his thesis. His goal here is to provide “graffiti artists with open source technologies for urban communication.”
I was introduced to Eric Saeter’s work last year by a mutual friend who knows him from their hometown of Seattle, Washington. It had been awhile since I checked on the progress of his budding design career so I revisited his work to find some nice new additions. Saeter was essentially underwhelmed by what was available in the men’s jewelry world, complaining about a lack of imagination and color. He took matters into his own hands and L’Âge d’Or was born. Lately, he has been experimenting with new material and the result is a collection of some really beautiful and unique works of art.
Cosmic Excerpts is a collection by Ryan Todd from Darklord. The collection is a result of many years of disco, funk, and cosmic record hunting. What makes this collection unique is the way Todd documents only a portion of the record sleeve in order to create a gestalt of new perspective for some of these bizarre designs. Todd had this to say, “I would buy a record and if it happened to have weird, sci-fi artwork then I photographed a portion of the cover for the set, avoiding any words or identifiers as best as possible. If the record turned out to be terrible, then at least I was able to take away a cool image from the experience before donating it to Goodwill. It also turned into a little bit of a game, with random people showing up to see if they could identify records based on the bit I chose to show.”
